It was less than three weeks ago that we were all oohing and ahing about the prewar penthouse at 9 Prospect Park West that had gone into contract for more than $3 million. Well, about that time, another smaller (though still pretty regal) apartment in the building hit the market at $1,850,000; yesterday it was reduced to $1,695,000. Like its larger upstairs neighbor, the 1,800-square-foot classic six is a beaut. The third bedroom is somewhat awkwardly wedged in between the kitchen and dining room, but besides that there’s not much to criticize. Judging from the view of the park, we’re guessing this is on the third or fourth floor. Think this will sell at the new price?

  1. ALTHOUGH BROKERS LIKE TO JUMP FOR JOY WHEN AN APT. GOES INTO CONTRACT, I WOULD TELL YOU THAT MANY THINGS HAPPEN BEFORE A CLOSING. IT ISN’T A DEAL TILL THE CLOSING.
    FIRST, THE PROPERTY HAS TO APPRAISE,ETC.
    I AM HAPPY FOR EVERYONE IN THE INDUSTRY
    THAT THE PROP WENT TO CONTRACT AT THAT PRICE…

  2. i agree 5:29 PM, bring on the bootylicious. I’ll try not to gawk. You know, pretend that I just didn’t glimpse one of the premiere beauty just walking out her front door and getting into her limo. Hope she smiles because we got love for her.

  3. you’ll be even more impressed when in 10 years brooklyn is the hottest ticket around and that auntie of yours leaves her pad in the sky to you…

    but for now, we’ll settle for some bootylicious-ness!!!

  4. I agree with 1:33. a lot of people do not like rowhouse living. They prefer the services in a coop as well as the more convenient layout: no stairs between the kitchen and parlor or between you and the kids’ rooms. Rowhouses are all about stairs, fine as long as your knees hold up over time.
    This is a lovely apartment, the maid’s room can be joined with the kitchen or it can be a separate laundry/utility room. The views are just above tree top height, beautiful.
